Oido varias veces (siete), cada vez que pasabamos por el sendero en la zona donde el se encontraba, emitia una vocalizacion... como advirtiendonos que estabamos en su territorio, una serie de tres sonidos graves dos cortitos juntos y un tercero separado largo, Uh... Uh... Uuuuuuhhhh, no tuvimos la suerte de que estuviese posado en una rama despejada, estaba entre muchas ramas, nos llevo horas poder localizarlo a pesar de que estaba a menos de 10 metros.
